How can I add an institution or organization as an author in Mendeley Desktop?

Last updated on April 06, 2022

 

Follow these steps to add an institutional author instead of an individual author:

  1. Select the document for which you would like to add an institutional author.
  2. In the 'Details' tab in the pane on the right-hand side, click the 'Author' field and enter the name of the institution.
  3. In the dropdown that appears, select the name of your institution with '(Organization/Institution)' behind it. This will mark the author as an institution, and will not abbreviate it as an individual name.

Please note: Institutions or organizations with commas in their names are not saved as institutional authors at present.
